NEWS NOTES FROM WASHINGTON.

The President and Mrs. Cleveland returned
to Washington on Wednesday morning after their
delightful trip through portions of New ork State
-of tno eignt 4" us.ioes ne. On .ne l7.A. ...-,
Bench of the Uuited States, four-Waite, Miller
Field and Bradley-are over seventy years Of age
Millionaire Corcoran, of Washington, who
is at Deer Park for the summer, is slowly getting
stronger but he will in all probability never walk
again. His mental faculties vigorous as ever
Senator Don Cameron directed that fifteen
hundred of the poorer children of Washington
be taken out to his farm near that city in wagons
dined and lunched and taken home again, on the
Fourth of July.
The discoveries regarding Harvey's accounts
have lead to general overhaulng of the books
of all the Government clerks who have the care
of money in Washington. There is said to be a
good deal of looseness in some of the departments
The original of long lost letter written by
General Washington in acknowledgment of an
address from the citizens of Newport has just been
found in Washington city. 1t is written on both
sides of two quarto pages of letter paper and is
still distinct and readable.
Oscar j. Harvey, the Treasury Department
employee who forged a number of vouchers by
which the Government was swindled out of about
$4,000, plead guilty in the District Criminal
Court on Wednesday and was sentenced to twelve
years at hard labor in the Albany penitentiary.-
Harvey is a young man and has family.
-Ihe count OF the casn and securities IN the U.
S. Treasurers Office, which began May 23d, will
probably be concluded this week. The funds on
hand amounted to S95, 100000, of which SOL $780,
600 was in standard silver dollars, $25, 900 900 in
gold con 81, 100000 in fractional silver coin, and
the balance in notes and certificates. So far as
is known not single penny's deficiency has yet
been found.
The most brutal and unprovoked murder
ever perpetrated in Washington was the killing
of Mr.. Jos. G. G.. Kennedy by worthless fellow
named John Daley. 1t occurred on the street,
near Mr.. Kennedy's office, and no cause has been
assigned for it. The murdered man was one of
Washington's most respected citizens and a
descendant of the Elicotts after whom Ellicott
City, Nd, was named.

GS- Friday and Saturday of this week will be
troublesome days for the Baltimore county Dem
ocracy and the only thing that can now be said
about the contest is that things are very badly
"mixed." Both factions of the party claim that
they sure of victory, but it is not possible
for both sides to win it is plain that somebody is
doomed to serious disappointment. Nothing but
the counting of the votes will determine who has
been successful, and it would be well for all to
keep as ceol as they can until that time. The
contests in some of the districts have engendered
the most bitter feeling and it will not be an easy
Job to smooth this over before the election, even
if it can be done at all. Democrats in Baltimore
county are not now so hide-bound as they were a
few years ago, and hundreds Of them no longer
regard it as mortal sin to "split" their tickets.
There is growing independence of feeling and it
will be well for the party managers not to over
look this fact It behooves them then to nomi-
nate good, respectable ticket, as the people have
become surfeited with fgure-heads and are not
disposed to vote for any man simply because his
name appears on the ticket.

the late RObt. Oliver. Warrior, Jr.'s dam was
Kate Carson, sired by Burlington. he by George
M. Patchen, and he by son of c. M. Clay. Bur-
lington's dam was by Monmouth Eclipse, son Of
American Eclipse.
DESCRIPTION. Warrior, Jr.. is beautiful dark
bay, with black points, and long flowing name

high, has remarkably fine bone and muscle, and
is very kind and tractable. At a private trial at
Herring Run track last fall, he was driven mile

When Mr.. William Daniel was asked if he
would accept the nomination for the Associate
Judgeship of the Third Judicial Circuit, rendered
him by the Hartford county Prohibition conven-
tion last week, he replied 81 don't want any of
it, but there might be certain circumstances that
would force me to accept. All the counties have
not yet been heard FROM" 1t is not known that
the Republicans will put candidate in the field,
and if they do not Mr.. Daniel might be able to
poll a very respectable vote. That would be all.
But if he should be elected he would not be eligi-
BILE, because the constitution expressly provides
that "no two of said associate judges SHALL at the
time of their election, or appointment, or during
the term for which they shall have been elected or
appointed, reside in the same county" Both
Judge Fowler and Mr.. Daniel are residents of
Baltimore county, hence his ineligbility.

~-Mr. Michael 0'Hara appears to have taken
offense at what THE UNION said last week about
his connection with the primary contest in the
sth district and charges us with making an "at-
tack" upon him, &c. We don't know what Mr..
O'Hara considers an "attack," as we are not aware
that we assailed him in any way. We did say
that he had been with the Todd ticket in that dis
trict and that he had gone back on it and Joined
forces with the opposition, and this is what he
denies, asserting that he had not taken part with
either side until he became candidate on the
Wight-Ensor ticket. Now Mr.. O'Hara has
brother Martin, and as they appear to have diVi-
ded forces in the present contest--Michael on one
side and Martin on the other-it is just possible
that we confounded the names. Advice is very
cheap commodity, we know, but we grant to give
Mr.. O'Hara just little bit of it on our own ac-
count: When he writes to newspaper to have
correction Eade he should stick to the text of his
supposed grievance and not drag in other matters
that are no business of his; and above ALL let him
try to be truthful. Mistakes are excusable. Un-
just and untruthful accusations are not.

gS-T The Chicago communications who are
not under sentence of death for murder-are said
to be contemplating emigration to San Domingo.
An agent has been five months on the island study
ing its climate, resources and general advantages
as a home for the fellows who desire to be law
unto themselves. 1t is claimed that twenty-five
families are ready to go, and that a good many
more will follow if money enough can be raised
to pay their expenses. The people of Chicago
are to be congratulated upon the absence of these
disturbers of the peace-if they 60. But what
crime the present residents of San Domingo have
been guilty of to merit such an inacton is what
the public will never understand.

lS- General Logan was one of the men who be-
lieved that a good name is rather to be chosen
than great riches. The inventory of his estate
shows a total valuation of $6,67O. His opportu-
mites to wealth were doubtless very great,
had he been dishonest man. Logan's personal
integrity was unquestioned and uuquestionable.
He died poor but who will say thathe was not wiser
than those who, in his position, increased their
wealth at the expense of their integrity; he had
enough while he lived to keep the wolf from the
door, and his children will never be called upon
to defend his reputation.

The Yearly Love Chase.
". Y. Herald.

Some correspondents and others complain, we
see, because husband and wife hunting has set in
in a lively fashion at the summer resorts. But,
good gracious, why shouldn't it?
1t is part of the business of life to get married,
and why should the agreeable pastime that leads
up to it be discouraged at watering places any
more than anywhere else?
Let the love chase by seaside and mountain 60
on undisturbed by all means. 1t amuses those
who look on as we'll as those who share in it, and,
if it hurts anybody else it cannot be said to hurt
its censors.

NS- Democratic primary meetings were held in
Baltimore on Wednesday for State convention del
egates and for members of the Senate and House
of Delegates. The "Regulars" carried sixteen of
twenty wards and therefore control the city, the
Crescent Club people or Hamiltonians having been
badly left. Hon. George Cotton, Crescent man,
carried the 18th ward for the House of Delegates
after very hard fight. There was very little dis
order and it is said that the primaries were fairly
conducted, which, if true, is something altogether
new for Baltimore CITY,

N9- Constitutional prohibition has been given
q years trial in Rhode Island. The Providence
Journal has secured reports from all parts of the
State as to its workings, the summing up of which
shows that drunkenness is just as prevalent under
the new law as it was before it was adopted.
Liquor is sold on the quiet everywhere. This
does not necessarily prove that the law cannot be
enforced, but that prohibition was accepted for
political purposes by the dominant party with the
deliberate intention of allowing it to become q
dead letter. Political prohibition does not pro,
hibit either in Rhode Island or elsewhere.
